I was honored to have been a part of Casa's 50th Birthday!
This year will mark the 40th anniversary of my Casa Manana debut!
Lindy Cabe serenades Joe Stecko.
Introducing the opening season:
"CAN CAN", "CAROUSEL",
"THE PAJAMA GAME", "THE MERRY WIDOW"
and "CALL ME MADAM".
Susan Mills-Polster assures me that,
"I'm Not Sick, I'm Just In Love."
Maybe that's the "CAN'T CAN'T"!
Chris Williamson, Missy Matherne, Jim Johnson, Persis Ann Forster-Burdick, Yours Truly, Susan Mills-Polster, Neil Mowles, Lindy Heath-Cabe, Todd Hart & the Casa Manana All-Star Orchestra! A "veteran" company! (Veteran is another word for old. HA!)
A BIG thank you to Todd Hart for putting this celebration together. The "Casa Kids" performed for the first Act; the lobby was filled with Puppeteers, Clowns, face painters and $.25 hot dogs, $.10 ice cream and popcorn (1958 prices!); and Brad Jackson put together the "Niche Museum" (see photos from "THE FANTASTICKS"). We even had our old live orchestra onstage with us! A great day!
